Tough question

I wanted to remember this conversation. It was on FB messenger from Saturday night.

K:  Tough question...I will start out by apologizing for my lack of sensitivity. Here we go.........If I never introduced myself or reached out to Bill, would you both still be following the course you're currently on? I know you've said you both have had ongoing issues. Your blog clearly reflects it. What I'm saying is I don't want to be the reason for your divorce. Promise I will never broach the topic again.

Me:  Oh my goodness, no! This "course" is long overdue. We even both tried to end it in the summer of 2016, but our pastor bullied us into not going through with it. That's so sweet and thoughtful of you to ask. Makes me like you even more.

Even if I end up alone, I know this is the right decision for me. If you want to discuss anything over the phone, give me a call.

I just feel bad if I've caused you any undue guilt or regret. You have done nothing wrong.

K:  The sermon in Church this evening and the folks I'm at dinner with sorta made me think of my past relationship. Both sounding like my mother.

BTW - the summer of 2016 was prior to our first meeting (09.24.16)

Me:  Sorry for break-just dropped Carter off at a friend's house. No offense, but I wouldn't do all this for anyone else except me and my kids.

K:  Perfect!
